Professional Program

Please Note: Breakfast is included daily at your hotel.

Professional members of the program will meet with your

nursing counterparts today at a major university in Dublin in

the morning. Discussion with faculty will focus on teaching

NNN (NANDA-I nursing diagnosis, Nursing Outcomes and

Nursing Interventions Classifications). One of the workshops

will be led by Dr. Heather Herdman on NANDA-I Nursing

Perspective: what the diagnoses are, how one diagnoses, and

how best to use NANDA-I diagnoses in practice.

Meet with health services support nurses, some of whom

would have been involved in funding, implementation,

observing and evaluating nurses' use of NNN.

Lunch will be provided at a local restaurant this afternoon.

The afternoon will be spent at a hospital in Dublin observing

how implementation of the nursing practice model has taken

shape in clinical areas.

Guest program: Today accompanying guests will enjoy a visit

to County Kilkenny with Kilkenny Castle and Jerpoint Park.

The town of Kilkenny is often referred to as “the Marble City”

and is the most interesting and best preserved of the medieval

Irish cities. It owes its immense charm to the various

impressive historical monuments. Kilkenny Castle has been an

important site since it was built by the Anglo-Normans in the

12th century. The castle has been remodeled in Victorian times

and set in extensive parklands which was the principal seat of

the Butler family, Marquesses and Dukes of Ormonde. Due to

major restoration works, the central block now includes a

library, drawing room, and bedrooms decorated in 1830's

splendor, as well as the beautiful Long Gallery. A warm Irish

welcome is guaranteed at Jerpoint Park, a period family home

and working sheep farm. A sheep dog demonstration with a

collie dog herding sheep in the farmyard is a sight to behold!

Dinner will be provided at a local restaurant or pub.

After dinner, head to O’Shea’s Merchant Pub for a night of

traditional Irish music and dancing (optional). The pub has a

long history of traditional music, with many of the greats in

Irish music playing here over the years. Monday nights they

offer a set dancing night with a chance to join in!

locals, has been brewed in Ireland since 1759. After a pint,

visit EPIC-The Irish Emigration Museum. This state-of-the-

art interactive experience located in the beautiful vaults of

the 1820 Custom House Quarter building in Dublin’s

Docklands is the original departure point for so many of

Ireland is known for. En route stop for a quick lunch, at

Irish heritage walking tour takes visitors through the

historic town where the buildings, streets and piers have not

changed since the Titanic’s sinking over 100 years ago. The

escorted tour, with specially trained guides, brings to life

the story of Titanic, and the events in the town on the day

Titanic left her last anchorage to sail into her icy fate in the

north Atlantic. Cobh is situated on the southern shore of the

Great Island in one of the world’s finest natural harbors.

Between 1848 and 1950, over 6 million adults and children

emigrated from Ireland including over 2.5 million from

Cobh, making it the single most important port of

emigration in the country. The Heritage Centre is located in

the old Victorian Railway station in Cobh formally known

as Queenstown. The Centre hosts a multi-media exhibition

of the Origins, History and Legacy of Cobh.

Head to the hotel this evening to check in and to have dinner

on your own arrangement.

Wrap up your professional exchange today with a morning

visit to a local university for Dr. Heather Herdman’s

Guest program: Today accompanying guests will depart for

a trip to Mizen Peninsula. Mizen Head Irish Lights Signal

Station is located at Ireland’s most southwesterly point, at

the end of the Mizen Peninsula, where the currents meet

from the west and south coasts and where waves from the

mid-Atlantic crash into the land. Mizen Head Fog Signal

Station was sanctioned in 1906 by the Irish Lights Board to

combat the high loss of life and shipping on the rocks.

Visitors can dare to cross the iconic bridge high above the

gorge; watch for seals and their pups in the swell below;

experience the solitude of the keepers’ lives and the

elemental power of the restless Atlantic where the ocean

currents swirl; laugh with exhilaration into the fresh salt-

laden sea air. Tour the visitor center and gift shop before

heading back to Cork.

Cork, Ireland

DAY 7: Friday, June 14

Ring of Kerry & Muchross Farms

This morning head out for a full day trip that includes

highlights of the Ring of Kerry. This will include Moll’s

Gap and Ladies View. Moll’s Gap provides magnificent

views of Macgillycuddy's Reeks Mountains. The rocks at

Moll's Gap are formed of old red sandstone and a great

scenic vantage point. Ladies View is another scenic

vantage point whose name stems from the admiration of

the view given by Queen Victoria's ladies-in-waiting

during their 1861 visit.

After lunch at a local pub or café, the group will head to

Muckross Traditional Farms. Greeted upon arrival by a

schoolmaster, proceed into a classroom for a short

some Irish words. Then take part in a butter making and

scone making demo. The Bean an Tis (women of the

house) will explain the importance of butter to the Irish

farmer’s wife, how it was transported throughout the

world, and why Irish butter is ranked so high both at

home and abroad. Sample the wares and have some tea or

coffee afterwards.

Return to Cork where dinner is by individual

arrangement (own expense).

Castle is famous for its Blarney stone, the Stone of
